The Swann model I have is SWDVK-434254S. Do I need to get anything else in addition to this in order for the microphone to work?

Along as the drive unit has an input for a mic, you can use one. Getting the mic to work may take some trail and error. If using a TV or computer. You will need a HDM1 cable to record the audio and video at the same time.

This microphone works independently of the camera; you can either secure it to the camera or place it nearby. I have one camera with the microphones power and the camera power feeding into a "v" shaped line and then continuing on to the DVR, but the sound has a slight bit of hollowness to it (different power converters) -- but the sound still comes in loud and clear. Good luck! You'll be picking high quality sound from distances greater than you ever anticipated. If you are running your DVR with an HDMI cable to your television, like I am, just adjust the sound level on your television to adjust the sound coming from the microphone.

Going to need some more info to really know what the problem may be, have you at least ran the set up wizard with the included microphone yet or color matched the copper cables into the right slots?

Yes. As long as you have a BNC connector on the back of your DVR, it will work.If you do not have a BNC connector, simply determine what type of connector your DVR uses. You can buy an adapter to make the BNC connector fit virtually any type of connector.99% chance your Swann DVR has a BNC connector.

I did a little bit of tweeking on the windows microphone settings and it works on my laptop and It uses a combo headphone/mic jack. Obviously i dont know what you are using, but if you get a splitter that splits the cable to a mic and headphone then it should work

We have the 2201-67800-160, which is the Soundstation 2W (wireless). Our external microphones are 2201-67840-101. They connect with a standard RJ-11 (4-Pin telephone connector) and work well. The particular unit you are asking about has the same part number as our external microphones, and the soundstation 2W has the same part (model) number, so I would expect they would work. Of course, Amazon has a pretty liberal return policy, if there is some odd difference between models or manufacturing dates.

Looks to me like the one I bought have had no problem, did u try it on the normal oitlet where the other microphone goes?

Look in the user guide and see if the mic jack is powered or not. If it's powered then it will work. If not then you will need a mic with an internal power supply.

I don't now if you can get pre made adapters for it.i don't remember if it is strictly microphone type input or if it has 1/4 in inputs.. if it has 1/4 in inputs you can more than likely get adapters for it... good luck

Yes, probably other brands will work too, but I use my Samson SWV266SHT6U-611 Handheld Wireless Microphones with this and it works great. It has two wireless microphones, so I plug in the receiver unit to one of the mike jacks and both of the microphones work off of that jack. Then I can use one of the other wired microphones that came with it in the other jack to allow for 3 users. I imagine if I had two of the wireless sets I might be able to use all 4 separate microphones-haven't tried that though.

It comes with an adapter that will fit any standard microphone mount. It should work fine.

Yes, make sure you select it as your default audio output with the USB dongle. If not you can buy a cable where you connect the red&white; plugs into it and it comes out as a dual 3.5mm output for audio and input for microphone.

You should, provided the connections are right. The microphone can be positioned directly in front of one's mouth, so clarity can be assured. Keep in mind that with almost any speech recognition system there will be a learning period both on your part and the machine's part. Since it works with my Dragon(r) speech-ware, it should work with Win 8 just fine.

I found another thread about this issue here: http://www.fixya.com/support/t902322-microphone_acer_aspire_one_isnt_working I emailed Acer tech support and received the most useless, infuriating response ever. Basically the answer was how to see the device listed in the control panel. well, thanks but how about a suggestion on how to FIX it??? I may call them if I can muster up the patience. In the meantime, maybe the folks over at fixya will find a solution.

There is nothing specified in the user guide and I also do not notice any additional inputs, jacks, etc. to support wireless microphones, so I am fairly certain there is nothing inherently in this unit to support wireless microphones. You would probably need to purchase the receiver portion for the wireless signal as well.

It's something required for the microphone to work. Use an audio interface with phantom power on it.

I didn't answer the whole question. If the pins match, you will need to put a 9 volt battery in the mic, then it will work.

not sure what version of windows you are using but in win 7, go to start, control panel, hardware and sound, sound, click on the recording tab and make sure the microphone is selected. Hit apply and you should be all good. You might have to reboot after this process.
